The war on drugs is like beating a child for crying. The child will just cry more, and a bad parent will smack it harder.

So keep smacking till it dies and the drugs stop flowing?

I knew someone would type something like this.

The drugs will never stop flowing, since many of them come from naturally occuring sources. The best thing to do is follow Portugal's example.

What did Portugal do?

Legalize the consumption of all drugs. It has lead to a drop in drug use, crimes related to drug consumption,  deaths from consumption, and a fall in drug related HIV contraction. Really a poster boy for the drug legalization campaign.

You mean light drugs like marijuana? Or even heroine?

But it's still illegal to sell drugs there, isn't it?
